8 years later"... but dad.... "Esmè" he called in a warning tone and glared at her. "You are going no where and that's final" he spoke in a pitch laced with finality and went up the stairs. "Mamá" she looked up at me with tears filled in her eyes and I sighed."I'm sorry princess, I may not be able to do anything about it this time but I know someone who could help you" i wiggled my brows and her eyes lit up with hope glistening in them. "Who?""Your grandma, mum can help you. So you're going to go to your room and freshen up then come back for dinner and after that we'd figure out how to get daddy to let you go for that party, what do you say?" She grinned and threw her arms around my torso. "Thank you mamá, I love you" "I love you too baby" i kissed her forehead and she ran up the stairs. I smiled and shook my head in satisfaction. I never thought I'd find peace after I left the mafia life behind but the fact is that, it is one of the best decision i made.Starting a life and a fa

8 years ago(2 months after the accident)I got into my apartment and pulled the winter coat off my body. "Whew! That was a heavy one" i muttered and locked the door. I strode over to the kitchen to make myself a cup of hot coffee and just as I was about to take a sip the door bell rang which made me groan in annoyance.I left the kitchen and went over to get the door. "Martina" a handsome tall stranger stood at my door with a killer smile on his face. He seemed familiar but I couldn't recall where I met him. Maybe he was part of the memory i lost."Hi, who are you?" Hurt flashed in his eyes and he sighed. "Can I come in?" He asked and though I was reluctant I still gave him a room to come in.I shut the door and offered him a seat. "Coffee?" He nodded and I went to the kitchen and made an extra cup. I returned with our cups of coffee and handed him his own."You really can't remember me?" He asked in a hush tone and I looked away from his hurt face. "I'm sorry..... "Stefano" his name s

~Maja~ My eyes fell on the cuffs in his hands and I slowly looked up into his eyes that seem to always appear dark with a dangerous intention. "What now attorney? Are you going to send me to jail with that?" I remarked sarcastically making the side of his lips lift up into a seductive smirk He took a confident stride towards me and my legs moved back on instinct. We continued the back and forth movement until my ass was resting on the bed which made him have the power to tower over me. My invisible adam apple rolled down and up my throat cause of the tension of our position and I tried my absolute best to control my raging hormones. "Handcuffs do not only serve its purpose for the law to prosecute criminals, this.... He jingled it in front of me and leaned in close to my face leaving just a few inches of space that prevented our lips from gluing together. "Is use it for so many other purposes Mi Regina" the words from his lips made me shut my thighs together to control the creamy

".... and with all evidences provided the court therefore finds Ms Elzandre not guilty of all charges pressed against her" the elderly man smacked the gavel onto the hard-sound block to seal his decision. All my seven years of being in this familiar box, I've come to know the lines whole heartily and I knew that no matter how much evidences they presented to the court, I'd never be caught.I've had so many enemies and still do. I've succeeded in making most of them my prey but there's just one I haven't gotten my hands on and that's; The government.Law, justice, charges, court... And so many legal terms have been my biggest rival for seven years and I'll stop at nothing until I completely eradicate them from this dark world.The judge stood up and made his way out while the police came forward to get the cuffs off my wrists and I went over to meet with my attorney.I let my predatory eyes roam around until it caught the raging eyes of Mrs Dela Torre. The look on her face caused the

"Hey hold up, someone stop that car right now" one of the cops yelled into his walkie talkie making the others get into their cars to begin the chase.My lips turned up into a smirk cause I was able to get them to fall into my little trap and now I'm going to take them on a joyride. I skillfully rode the motorcycle in a zig zag motion to avoid all flying bullets while skillfully running between cars."GJZ0196 heading Southwest" I hear one of the cops call and i looked through the rear view mirror to find their cars dangerously close to mine."Southwest? There's a cliff a... An evil idea crossed my head and a sinister smile stretched out on my lips. "It's time to say good bye papás" I muttered and increased my speed.I couldn't let the other cops get a hold of the motorcycle so I had to follow through with the risky idea in my head. "I guess the kingdom of hell should get ready for my arrival if I don't get this right" I muttered and took up all the courage in me to jump out from the s

"Congratulations Mr DelMonte. This case was quite a tough one but as always you managed to prove your client not guilty and won this, congrats again" the sides of his face wrinkled up cause of his wide smile and I returned it with a stiff nod and a tight lipped smile.He walked away and i felt arms around my waist making me spin around to find Ms Cheryl, the client who I had just won a case for. I didn't know how to react so I stood with no definite emotion and let her have her emotional moment.She finally pulled away and offered me an embarrassed smile while trying to stop the tears from rolling down. "Here" I gave her my handkerchief and she thanked me before using it."I'm really sorry about my behavior Mr DelMonte, I.I just got carried away by my emotions. I..if it weren't for your help I would be rotting behind bars for a crime I didn't commit" I offered her a little smile and patted her shoulder."That's fine Ms Cheryl, It is my job" she passed me a grateful smile which I retur

"Where is the money Ignacio?" I grabbed a fist full of his hair while burning fire into his fearless eyes. "I thought you were a smart one Maja, figure it out" he retorted cockily causing me to loose my cool.I smacked him hard and clench my nails on his cheeks making sure the sharp acrylics left painful marks on his delicate skin."I'm going to let your attitude slide Ignacio and give you one last chance. Where. Is. The. Billion. Dollars. You. Stole?" I spelt out each words with venom dripping from my voice."Forget about it Maja, I'll rather die than tell you" he spat out and I replied with a sadistic smile. "I love it when y'all give me the permission to kill you, it makes me feel less guilty and i fucking swear I'll make sure you die a thousand times" I whispered in his ears and my organs danced with joy at his frightened expression."Rocco" I called and took my hand out for him to place the knife. The feeling of the blade on my palm caused the blood in my body to run cold and it

I glanced at my phone screen to find Antonio's name glowing on it and I picked it up to see I had so many missed calls from him, Sophia and Esmeralda's school?I accepted his call and was attacked by his worried voice. "Riccardo where the fuck did you keep your phone? We've been trying to reach you for hours" he gritted out angrily and I rolled my eyes."You know my phone is always in silent when I have a hearing in court and after the hearing I returned to the office to work on my next case, why, what's wrong?" He breathed out and though I couldn't see him I could guess he just ran his fingers in his hair."It's Esmeralda" my whole body tensed up and I stood up from my chair. "What happened to her?" I asked in a low tone while fear creeped its way to my heart at the thought of what could have possibly happened to her."There was a fire accident... "WHAT?" I yelled in terror and grabbed my car key from the table with a shaky hand."Riccardo relax, she's fine but the problem is that we

".....daddy's hosting a winter ball this Christmas mamá and there's no one to dress me up like my favorite princess, so you have to wake up so you'll do that for me. And here I got you this cute teddy bear, grandma told me it'd make you wake up from your deep sleep" I could hear all she was saying but I didn't have the energy to open my eyes.I felt her weight on my tummy and the soft furs of the teddy bear against my skin yet I couldn't move nor speak cause it felt like the whole organs in my body were being restricted. I heard the sound of the door and though my condition had me in a position where I was surrounded by the awful smell of medicines my nose was still able to pick up his fresh and intoxicating scent."Princess you've been here the whole day, c'mon you have to go with grandma you need to have dinner and go to bed" I could imagine the pout on her face and I desperately wanted to stop him from taking her away. "Daddy, she still isn't waking up, the teddy bear didn't help"

We arrived at the given address and I jumped out of the car without waiting for her to park the car properly. My back landed harshly on the ground but it was nothing compared to the pain I was feeling in my heart. I stayed still for awhile before I got on my feet to go save my daughter."Maja.... "Makayla please remain in the car. So many people are in danger already" I pleaded and though she was reluctant to follow my instructions she did it anyways. I made my way to the door only to find it locked. "I fucking asked you to not bring anyone" I heard a female voice and Riccardo's voice followed."I didn't inform anyone" his voice held no emotion and i knew he was only trying to be calm for the sake of Esmeralda. "Open the door" I heard whoever it was ordered. The door pushed open and i hurriedly went in. At my arrival everyone turned their attention towards me and I definitely wasn't expecting the two souls that were present in the room. "Alicia?" She smiled menacingly at my situation a

"Are they all where they are supposed to be at?" She asked Rocco over the phone when we arrived at the location Samantha asked us to meet her in. "Yes Don""Do not attack until i say otherwise. Any little mistake can put her life in danger, get that?" she clearly instructed and he nodded his head in understanding. "When you have to talk to me, you know what to do already. "Sì don" she dismissed him and turned to me. "What's next?" I asked and she looked around the incomplete building then back at me. "We'd have to go in" i held her wrist to stop her from taking any step further. "That'll be dangerous...."Maja, relax and trust me will you?" Although I had a lot of insecurities about this I chose to trust her to bring us out of this situation. "I trust you sis but... "There's no but, just let me handle things and do whatever I ask you to do without questions, now let's go" she pulled my wrist and led us in.Our presence were graced by the dust and rough granites. We looked around for

I arrived at the casino and went down to our usual hideout room. Makayla, Rocco, Elvis and Uncle Fidel were already seated and they were in a middle of a conversation. I made my way to my seat and asked for a detailed explanation about the situation and Rocco began the narration."You said she met someone at the club, who's that?" I questioned. "That's what we have no idea about, we're trying to figure it out" i stood up and left to go seek answers for myself cause staying here will only lead to a conversation that goes in circle and my sister's life is in the hands of a monster.I got to the mansion and went up to the control room to check the cctv footage. It was seen that the house had been empty at the time of the abduction which made my brows furrow in confusion. "If someone dropped her..... he must have left her outside. I reasoned. I was able to get the footage of the cctv at the gate and zoomed into the car that dropped her off. Unfortunately I couldn't get a view of his face
Dead Ends Chapter 35
My head stung with pain and my eyes felt heavy to pop open. "Holy Fudge" i groaned at the hurtful feeling and twisted my body to the other end of the bed. I gripped into the soft sheets and buried myself between the scented pillows. The deep masculine scent..... masculine? Events of yesterday came crashing and I sat up from the bed ignoring the pain that was shooting in my head. I laid my back on the head rest and ran my palm down my face.My underwear and my dress were still intact meaning nothing happened last night. I tried recalling his face but the only thing i could make out were his gray marbles and attractive pink lips.I was about to get down from the bed when the door flew open to reveal my savior. He was just in a pair of white sweats. His upper body was left exposed and the sight was too.... I realized my thoughts were getting out of boundaries so I cleared my throat and looked away but I still couldn't get his well sculpted body out of my mind. "How are you feeling?" He

~Makayla~"Don" I looked behind me to find Rocco standing with no emotion written on his face. "Do you have any news?" I raised a brow and he shook his head."I'm sorry Don, we found her but Samantha and her allies are very smart. We were able to get her last location but before we could send our men she escaped" I hissed out in annoyance and clenched my fist to control my fury. "If she thinks she can hide forever then she's fucking insane" i mumbled angrily and looked at him. "Go back and get to work, ensure you and your team do all you can to get Samantha, she can't get away with her crimes. You can leave" he replied to my commands with a light nod.I stared at nowhere in particular with my mind pinned on all the horrible pain I'm going to bring Samantha. My thoughts were interrupted by the soft knock of someone. Without waiting for an instruction from me the door slowly creaked opened to reveal Layla, my assistant."I'm sorry to bother you Don but there's a man out there and he's
